Real ales, a beer garden and quiz nights on a Thursday and Sunday are why I love going to this local boozer!

The Laboratory Spa & Health Club
A beautiful, airy, bright gym with a spa and a fresh water swimming pool, which means no stinging eyes and great for children! They also put on excellent exercise classes too and there's no minimum contract.

Looks basic but the chips are the best tasting 'classic fish and chip shop chips' in Hornsey. Yum yum.

Park Road Pools and Fitness
The outdoor Lido is fun! If you are not feeling brave, there are indoor pools too and fitness classes. This is a great leisure centre to take all of the family, with a children's soft play area, children's yoga and martial arts classes.

Best chippy in North London, or even the whole of London! You can even sit in too.

O'Neill's
Not your typical O'Neill's with its setting in a converted church. It still has its original features and a lively atmosphere at the weekend.

Planet Organic
The most amazing shop that stocks literally every organic food you can imagine, as well as a huge range of beauty, health and baby products. The store is always immaculate, there are loads of helpful staff around and best of all, there is a juice bar and coffee shop too.

Dunn's
From cakes for special occasions to sandwiches at lunchtime, this local bakery has been serving Crouch End for years and they're certainly my first port of call for baked treats!
"Sir Francis Bacon, in proving his theory that meat could be preserved by keeping it cold, plucked a chicken and stuffed it with snow. Unfortunately, he caught pneumonia from the experiment and died shortly after, yet it is sightings of a ghostly chicken that have been reported in the Highgate area."
I love popping out at lunch time to see what Muswell Hill has to offer!

When you work in Muswell Hill, sometime's it's easy to take views like these for granted...

I love everything that Crouch End has to offer, from shops, to cafés, to cosy pubs...
